They have been more successful in the last 5 years than big schools like Wisconsin, North Dakota, Penn State, etc.
The whole intent here is to develop the kid and play him against the best competition possible. The reason Quinnipiac has been to the tournament for the past six years is because they play against weak competition and they are a powerhouse program. You don't get better beating up on weak competition, you get better playing against the best. It is why these other programs aren't an automatic for the tournament. The best players are in those other programs and it would do him much more for his development to play against them than rack up points against weaker competition.
